So, this is happening at some point. Today, given the release of several updates to modules, I decided to abandon my really good workflow and the coolest tool LM never built in favor of the modules ...
Right. In the old UI, there was one place to view and edit. In the new UI, there is one place to view and another to edit. I get that you didn’t have the resources on hand to build out the editors in time for the toolbox release, so you had to take some shortcuts to get it released before the editors were ready.
You can understand why there is confusion. Before, I would open the editor to view. In my mind, i was in view mode. I wasn’t changing anything. I was simply getting a view into what the module applied to and what instances it created. That’s why i expected this functionality to be in the details pane, where things are viewed. Also, since only the details pane existed for (more than?) a year, I didn’t even know the editors were there.
Please get it set into stone. You don’t need to develop one set of code to view the fields and another to edit the fields. Especially since many other places in LM have little pencil icons all over the place for editing the fields.
